They were made for the USA-market and can be identified by the high mounted rearlights at the top of the petrol/gas tank and the highmounted numberplate on the spare wheel. for more info on the EXU: http://www.mikelosey.com/mg/ http://www.omgtr.ca/buysell/ListerPhotos/ListerPhotos.html http://www.tcmotoringguild.org/CHASSIS/07MarchMidget.pdf (page 6, 1,97Mb) -- Last edit: 2009-03-05 20:15:00

You can also see the rear bumper and license plate mounted in the midline; the original exu bumper set had a midline bracket for the license plate that put it in that position. The number plate was not mounted on the spare wheel. The car appears to be missing its overriders however. The green car in the foreground....I don't think it's an MG. The wipers come up from the dash (like a TF but none before) but the scuttle is flat (not like a TF), and the seat back looks to be one-piece, again not like a TF. The TF steering wheel was sprung, not solid spoked. And, no MG after the TF had a center-hinged bonnet.
